LITTLE FALLS -- Morrison County is offering a new way to help residents get rid of old and unused prescription drugs.

You can pick up a drug disposal bag from any of the law enforcement agencies in the county for free. You then put the drugs in the bag, fill it with warm water, seal it and shake it.

The bag deactivates the drugs and makes them inert. The pouch can then be thrown in the garbage.

Authorities are urging everyone to properly dispose of old and unused drugs to prevent accidental poisoning, misuse by others and prevent them from being flushed down the toilet.

Here are 50 of your favorite retail chains that no longer exist.

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.
